another fine O-DARK-THIRTY morning. at dawn we STRIKE!


another hundert(100) miles slapped on it just now. beautiful morning on the interstate. yer traditional overnight CARNAGE of java-leeners(javalina), wabbits, raccoons, rock squirrels, various lizards,snakes, quail ,and dove SPLATTERED TO HIGH HELL across the interstate for my driving pleasure.


2 hundert(200) more miles to go and valve adjustment/oil time. gots my earl(oil) my filter, my feeler gauges,zoomy mega cool full race valve cover gaskets and mega cool full race new valve cover nutz and MY NEW OEM OIL RETURN TUBES!

yep finally found a weeper. drivers side. sum beeattch(SOB), this was a quandry while rebuilding. my original ones looked fine, replaced ALL o-rings, circlips, blah blah. a lil cad was missing. no big deal. well note to self................ALWAYS REPLACE OIL RETURN TUBES! and not with goofy aluminum ones. the OEM kind.


oh well, better we find out, close to home, than in the middle of BFE or at the track.


man this thing runs like a raped ape. cant wait to hit RED LINE! ran at 185 degrees F w/the freeking a/c on the entire way.
